--- status: To Read title: The Richest Man in Babylon subtitle: "" description: The Richest Man in Babylon is a book by George Samuel Clason which dispenses financial advice through a collection of parables set in ancient Babylon. Through their experiences in business and managing household finance, the characters in the parables learn simple lessons in financial wisdom. By basing these parables in ancient times, but involving situations that modern people can understand and identify with, the author presents these lessons as timeless wisdom that is as relevant today as it was back then. The book began in 1926 as a series of informational pamphlets. Banks and insurance companies began to distribute these pamphlets, and the most famous ones were eventually compiled into this book. categories: - Non-fiction - Wealth - Personal Development authors: - [[George Samuel Clason]] published_on: 2013-06 publisher: Lulu.com pages: 184 isbn: 1,291,471,812 cover: http://books.google.com/books/content?id=KTObBQAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&edge=curl&source=gbs_api local_cover: 50 Resources/51 Attachments/51.03 Public/The Richest Man in Babylon (book).jpg link: https://amzn.to/3RY2P5F tags: - type/book - books - summaries - finance - wealth - zone/areas - zone/areas/literature_notes created: 2024-07-08T16:06 updated: 2026-04-01T14:43 public_note: true --- # The Richest Man in Babylon (book) - Author(s): [[George Samuel Clason]] - Link: https://amzn.to/3RY2P5F ![[The Richest Man in Babylon (book).jpg|200]] # Brief description # Key quotes > ... # Key ideas ... # Chapter 1: ... ... ## References -
